FWIW, I can confirm that akmod-nvidia-358.16-1.fc23.x86_64 breaks my system with the
GeForce 8600M GS card (a rather old card in a laptop).

Falling back to akmod-nvidia-340xx.x86_64 got things working again.  You may want to
consider giving that a try after checking and confirming 340xx is supposed to support your
card.
